Now Pashur
the son
of Immer
the priest,
who was also chief
governor
in the house
of the LORD,
heard
that Jeremiah
prophesied
these things.

Then Pashur
smote
Jeremiah
the prophet,
and put
him in the stocks
that were in the high
gate
of Benjamin,
which was by the house
of the LORD.

And it came to pass on the morrow,
that Pashur
brought forth
Jeremiah
out of the stocks.
Then said
Jeremiah
unto him, The LORD
hath not called
thy name
Pashur,
but Magormissabib.

For thus saith
the LORD,
Behold, I will make
thee a terror
to thyself, and to all thy friends:
and they shall fall
by the sword
of their enemies,
and thine eyes
shall behold
it: and I will give
all Judah
into the hand
of the king
of Babylon,
and he shall carry them captive
into Babylon,
and shall slay
them with the sword.

Moreover I will deliver
all the strength
of this city,
and all the labours
thereof, and all the precious things
thereof, and all the treasures
of the kings
of Judah
will I give
into the hand
of their enemies,
which shall spoil
them, and take
them, and carry
them to Babylon.
And thou, Pashur,
and all that dwell
in thine house
shall go
into captivity:
and thou shalt come
to Babylon,
and there thou shalt die,
and shalt be buried
there, thou, and all thy friends,
to whom thou hast prophesied
lies.
O LORD,
thou hast deceived
me, and I was deceived:
thou art stronger
than I, and hast prevailed:
I am in derision
daily,
every one mocketh
me.
For since
I spake,
I cried out,
I cried
violence
and spoil;
because the word
of the LORD
was made a reproach
unto me, and a derision,
daily.

Then I said,
I will not make mention
of him, nor speak
any more in his name.
But his word was in mine heart
as a burning

shut up
in my bones,
and I was weary
with forbearing,
and I could
not stay.

But the LORD

they shall be greatly

for they shall not prosper:
their everlasting
confusion
shall never be forgotten.

my cause.

Sing
unto the LORD,
praise
ye the LORD:
for he hath delivered
the soul

from the hand

Cursed
be the day
wherein I was born:
let not the day
wherein my mother
bare
me be blessed.
Cursed
be the man
who brought tidings
to my father,
saying,
A man
child
is born
unto thee; making him very
glad.
And let that man
be as the cities
which the LORD
overthrew,
and repented
not: and let him hear
the cry
in the morning,
and the shouting
at noontide;

Because he slew
me not from the womb;
or that my mother
might have been my grave,
and her womb
to be always
great
with me.
Wherefore came I forth
out of the womb
to see
labour
and sorrow,
that my days
should be consumed
with shame?
